Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · May 23, 2006
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 11,476 westbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 65. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,873 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 3,857 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 20 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Peak hours: 3,873 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 3,857 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2022 was the peak year (6 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 25% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 4% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 3, 2026.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Kingston Rd between Fenwood Hts and Rockwood Dr (38 m away) recorded an average of 56 km/h in its 3-day count in May 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 66 km/h. That segment carries about 24,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Rockwood Dr between Phyllis Ave and Cree Ave measured slower: 36 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Jun 2015). At the school-zone speed sign on McCowan Rd (341 m away, 50 km/h limit), 0.4% of the 29,142 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — almost none.
